Dreamin of George Orwell's daily life

I found that George Orwell's original diaries covering 1938 - 1942 are being posted on this blog day by day exactly 70 years after he wrote them. From documenting the imminent meltdown of Europe into world war to domestic details of what was had for breakfast - they make fascinating reading. Thanks to Spatula forum for the link.

Bob's people whoever they are (Sony, Columbia, Managers) have released a short video of the song Dreamin' Of you from the upcoming 'official' Bootleg Series 8 - release date 7 Oct. It has Harry Dean Stanton (I think its him) travelling the USA following Dylan gigs with a caseload of taping gear and bootleg tapes. Quite amusing as it shows they do really know what is going on!
